A FIENDlSH DEED.
San Francisco Street-Car Dummy Blown
Up and Several Passengers Injured.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. A-The residents on
Post street, between Larkin and Polk streets,
were startled last evening, by the sound of ire
mendous explosion and by the shattering of glass
about their ears. A dynamite cartridge had been
placed on the track Of the Larkin-str branch
line of the Sutter-street cable road and had ex-
ploded under dummy No. a. The dummy was
completely wrecked and the windows of the car
and of houses in the vicinity were demolished.
A Mr.. Hilderbrand and his wife and brother
were sitting in the dummy on the side where the
explosion took place. They were all thrown into
the street. and Mrs. Hiderbrand, it Is feared,
is seriously injured. She was taken into q
neiehborinR house and medical assistance was
summoned. Later In the evening she was con-
veyed to her home. It was a miracle that there
were no others injured. as several persons were
the scene of the disaster and soon large crowd
congreeated.
Engineer Comfy. who was the dummy, in
describing his sensations said that the explosion
had the effect of momentarily stunning him. and
1t was fully half an hour before he recovered his
hearing. The excitement caused by this explo-
sion was intensified when it became known that
another explosion ha9 taksR. place on the
Sutier street cable foad, near Du-
The explosion is believed to have been caused by
q giant powder cartridge the dummy wheels
filming over it. The dummy was disabled and
had to be taken to the shops fof fepaifB IL was
replaced by a new one and the road continued to
operate its cars as usual during the remainder of
the night. No one was injured by the last ex,
plosion, as the charge in the cartridge evidently
was small.
The authorities are entirely at loss as to the
authors Of these outrages and have, as yet. not
obtained the slightest clue to the perpetrators of
any of these frequent attempts at the destruc-
ton of life and property on the Geary and SUIT
ter-street cable roads. Three men who were
or the Post-street dummy were bruised but
none OF them seriously hur& Two men have
been arrested on suspicion of being concerned
in the outrage Their names cannot be ascsr
tanned.
Later in the evening an unexploded dynamite
cartridge was found near Scott street, on the
Geary street road The cartridge had evidently
been placed on the track, but had rolled off
Chief Crowley aud other public officials are de-
libeIating as to what means to take to detec,
and bring the culprits to justice and to guard
more carefully against any such acts in the
